Study of a Filmless Technique and Radiographic Method for Testing of Welds in Butt Joints of Tankers T-2

Abstract

Tests performed on a welded steel plate with artificial defects proved the feasibility of more expeditious methods of inspecting welds of tankers by: (1) Improvement of Radiographic methods by X-Rays or Gamma rays and by, (2) using isotopes as radiation sources and Geiger-Muller counters as detectors.
